I've only got a couple of years experience under my belt - but they
were pretty successful, although fairly limited in variety and most
stuff was all ready at the same time. Next year... sorry THIS year I'd
rather avoid having to freeze 8 kilos of green beans in one go!
thanks in advance for any help.

Well, IME everything has to be done in May ;-) Except broad beans which
are earlier.

In practice, I sort the packets into order of planting and put rubber
bands round the bundle for each month.

To get round the 8kg of beans problem, try successional planting - plant
half the packet, then plant the other half a week or two later.
